Artist Statement

The emotional tone reflects a struggle between rage and calm, utilizing contrasting colors to depict this conflict. The palette of vibrant reds symbolizes rage, while the cooler pale blues and whites represent calmness. Colors like red (#FF5733) clash with softer hues (#B0E0E6), forming a visual tension. This tension primarily occurs around the center, where a burst of chaotic checker patterns meets the quiet staircase pattern, creating an interruption amid the calm. The broken pixels represent eroded symmetry, adding depth to the emotions expressed in the design while allowing for necessary negative space.
